'Men are a dime a dozen.'
acoustic folk country lai
Lyricist on an endless quest for the perfect melody.
I'm afraid I can't claim to be a band, although I have been known to jump on a bandwagon from time to time. No, I'm just a humble lyricist who is in absolute awe of the composers who have stumbled into my life and bothered to wrap a melody around some of my words. I've been attempting to legitimately call myself a lyricist since I was about 14 years old. Have a listen, won't you, and let me know if I qualify.

Lyrics
Waiting in the Wings © 2007 Greg C. Brown and Heather Cowles My best friend Sue called up late last night, Crying like a baby. She said that Joe walked out on her, He’d found another lady. She wondered what could have gone wrong, She thought her love was good and strong. I tried to give her peace of mind And said he wasn’t worth it. This love can be a tricky thing, It’s rarely ever perfect. I said don’t waste your tears on him, You know that you’ll find love again. (CHORUS) Men are a dime a dozen, The ratio’s one to two. You won’t be lonely for long, This I promise you. So, dry your eyes, you’ll soon recover From this burning sting, ‘Cause there will always be another Waiting in the wings. I told her she was not the first To get her heart tore open. I’ve been there too, and shed my tears, Wasting time on hopin’. I knew he wasn’t coming home And I refused to be alone. (REPEAT CHORUS) Instrumental I thought about the things I said And I knew I spoke from reason. This good advice I took myself Was nothing short of treason. ‘Cause I found happiness again And me and Joe are more than friends. (REPEAT CHORUS 2 X) There will always be another Waiting in the wings.
